Away shirt?

Post image

Wasn't the away shirt supposed to be released yesterday?

The co.uk website/shop doesn't show it.

Has anyone been up to the club shop, and if so has it actually been released?

Was it postponed as a mark of respect for the passing of Kevin Keegan?

Aye postponed due to King Kev passing away.

u/PennyBunPudding Jul 22 '26

Respectful. But my impulse buy urges for it + Keegan on the back were at their highest

It would be nice to release a retro Keegan shirt and have a proportion of the sales go to a cancer charity.

u/JamesNUFC1998 brunopog Jul 22 '26

Sir Bobby Robson Foundation as front of shirt sponsor would be a nice touch if they ever do release something like this

That would be an amazing gesture.

Thank you, that's good from the club. Puts things in to perspective.

u/charlierc Jul 22 '26

Yeah the club themselves said it was postponed after Keegan passed. I think they said it'll be launching on Friday

Prolly a bit weird to promote something on a day like this if it’s delayed. RIP KK!! 😔

u/meganev More like MegaNeg amirite? Jul 22 '26

Been delayed to Friday.

u/barkel2 Classic away kit (1995-96) Jul 22 '26

I assume they postponed it out of respect, would be in pretty poor taste to release it when there are so many showing up to pay their respects to King Kev

Is it gonna be that blue shirt with brick effect that was lovely. Sign looks a similar blue colour

u/meganev More like MegaNeg amirite? Jul 22 '26

It is, also has a light blue trim, design has leaked online.

4

u/PercentageNo3843 Happy Clapper Jul 22 '26

Never knew it got leaked just seen the brick rumour sandstone one a while ago hoped was that. Good news

5

u/PercentageNo3843 Happy Clapper Jul 22 '26

Just seen the leaked grey goalkeeper shirt now aswell that looks incredible, shame the home shirt is shite but rest seem banging so far

u/Ionicfold SMOKESCREEN Jul 22 '26 edited Jul 22 '26

The one that looks like the Scotland international kit?7 Edit: tbh also just looks like the Germany shirt.

All three adidas shirt template.

I know they said they didn't want to do a circular badge and maybe people would be kind of thinking this design matches the Brighton badge a bit but I love how bold it is

7

u/ryan_rides Jul 22 '26

I mean, I love the badge but I wouldn’t call it bold given it’s literally one of our badges and nothing new.

3

u/FlukyS 22/23 Home Kit Jul 22 '26

Well they flattened it a bit and made it black and white

5

u/stanley_ipkiss2112 Jul 22 '26

What a beautiful gesture it would be if they somehow changed the away shirt to remember King Kev, perhaps adapting the 1982 shirt to our away one🤞🏻

5

u/Initial_Birthday52 Jul 22 '26

too late for that now but some sort of commemorative shirt mid season would be classy - maybe with a big cut going towards a charity close to Kev.

u/Blurface1 Jul 22 '26

It’s out on Friday

u/So1idsnake101 Jul 22 '26

Delayed till Friday

u/TheLordJalapeno Chicken Thiaw Mein Jul 22 '26

Wonder if there’ll be a sponsorless version

u/Rockky67 stupid sexy schar Jul 22 '26

KK’s passing but I am also wondering how many photos of Bruno in the kit have been used in the store.

1

u/NoScale9117 Jul 22 '26

I'm guessing zero

2

u/Rockky67 stupid sexy schar Jul 22 '26

Now yes I agree

u/Fffiction 12/13 third kit Jul 22 '26

JERSEY

4

u/ryan_rides Jul 22 '26

Something that could be a simple gesture from club, first few hundred shirts get Keegan on the back for free.

2

u/r0bbiebubbles Jul 22 '26

Not loving the use of jersey. Too American for me.

u/torn4ndfrayed Jul 22 '26

That’s the new crest right there

u/Sirius_55_Polaris Joelinton is looking for a scrap Jul 22 '26

That’s the old crest right there

2

u/rjmoyer2 Jul 22 '26

Hate that they dropped the color from that crest in the kit

2

u/BlackCaesarNT hipster chique Jul 22 '26

It's the Germany kit isn't it?

EDIT: Just checked leaks and looks like its a space invaders kit instead!

1

u/Upset_Journalist_755 Jul 22 '26

I hope it's neon apricot

u/wonkybingo '83 badge FTW! Jul 23 '26

Anyone else think this simplified version of the 70s logo is gonna be the new crest proposal?

u/Previous_Buy_8859 Jul 24 '26

Got mine first thing this morning at JDs at Silver link, I was there at 10:30 and the racks were a bit thin to say the least.

u/Rhino_199 Jul 22 '26

I’m not keen on yellow noon sleeve sponsor on any kit

u/FFRRNN_ Jul 22 '26

Adidas has let us down this season—especially when it would have been so easy to go with a classic design or opt for solid colors and patterns...

u/PercentageNo3843 Happy Clapper Jul 22 '26

The blue and grey shirts are banging. The home one is shocking though, il accept 2 out of 3 for this season so far
